Directions:

Have nut paste ready before you make the dough. Nut paste: Mix all ingredients together and cook over medium-low heat until the paste thickens, stirring constantly. Remove from heat, let it cool before spreading on the dough.Dough: Mix flour, Crisco, vanilla, baking powder and salt together as you do for pie crust. Melt yeast in warm milk, then add eggs. Add this to all the other ingredients. Work with your hands until it rolls off your hands. Roll dough out thin, spread with nut paste. Cut to desired size. (I cut small rectangles and roll point to point.) Roll, then roll in sugar. Bake at 400º for 15 to 20 minutes on lightly greased cookie sheets.

My family really likes these. I make them at Christmas and special occasions like weddings. It takes some time, so it helps if someone works with you.
